Ric Drasin started training clients in the mid 60's when he ran a chain of health clubs. He also taught diet and fitness classes atthe YMCA. Later on he moved to Venice and worked out with Arnold Schwarzenegger at the famous Gold's Gym for 4 years along with trainer Joe Weider. At that time Ric designed the famous Gold's Gym Logo and later on the World Gym Gorilla. During that time he wrote articles and posed with products for Joe Weider's Muscle & Fitness magazine.

Ric later joined Lou Ferrigno on the Incredible Hulk TV Series as the Demi Hulk (Middle Hulk) which became a cult favorite.Though he won a few bodybuilding titles, Ric turned to Pro Wrestling as 'The Equalizer' becoming a heavyweight champion andmade a huge name for himself in federations such as WWE,WWF,CCW,NWA,AWA, and more Indy Feds, also doing many TV Commercials andFilms. Ric runs his own Pro Wrestling School which is one of the top schools in the world today in Sherman Oaks, CA with over 3/4 of a million viewers on You Tube. Many TV Networks shoot specials at Ric's school along with his own videos and the ever popular Ric's Corner interview show.

A Testimonial from the Producers of a new TV Show taping in Tampa Florida

To Anyone Interested in Wrestling:

As a fan I remember Ric Drasin tearing it up at the famed Olympic Auditorium. Today I'm even more excited to have him as a co-worker. I've been in the business for over twenty years, as one of the creative forces behind G.L.O.W. - Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling, and W.O.W. - Women Of Wrestling. When I was contacted about developing a new show (I can't reveal the name until our big launch), I knew Ric was the man to call.

Ric Drasin's love, respect, and protection of the business is readily apparent. He has a wealth of knowledge he's always willing to share. His training approach, methods, and all around program drew rave reviews from our trainees. In three weeks time, Ric took girls who had never wrestled and had them ready for television matches.
Their performance level was so high, and they executed moves so well, wrestlers who have been working for years sat up and took notice. Legendary Hall Of Famer Jimmy Hart personally told me how impressed he was. If that doesn't speak volumes, let me add that the trainees talked so positively and passionately about their experience with Ric, models and actresses who had non-wrestling roles on our show are now lining up for training. Much of our success belongs to Ric Drasin. I'm glad he's part of our team.
